Reservations are required for this special event through kbeach@gardenconservancy.org.
Bunny Williams and John Roselli’s garden in Falls River, Connecticut
Here’s what others have said about his work:
“What an enchantment to enter gardens through Christian’s eye, down steps, along paths into a dazzling wildness of flowers and leaves, made magical by his brush and pen—not a word needed.”
—Page Dickey
“Christian’s gardens celebrate light, dark, heat, water, and time, as well as flowers. Some of the gardens are gone, some still triumphantly alive, but on these pages all remain as they were when he found them—as clear as Emily Dickinson, as sexy as Baudelaire, as hilarious as Edward Lear’s limericks. Christian’s garden chairs brood like Edward Gorey heroines. His closed iron gates are as light but final as the word ‘no.’”
—Mac Griswold
Please join us for a fun evening!
